expected resume command

Error message

expected resume command

What it means

Test assertion panic: parses 'codewhale resume abc123' and expects Commands::Resume so it can assert the session id and that the sessions footer points at 'codewhale resume'. The panic means the parsed command is not Commands::Resume.

Solutions

1. Print the actual cli.command variant in the panic message.
2. Confirm Commands::Resume still exists with session_id and last fields in that exact shape.
3. Verify the clap subcommand is still named 'resume'.
4. Rebuild the tui crate and rerun the sessions tests.

Example fix

// before
let Some(Commands::Resume { session_id, last }) = cli.command else {
    panic!("expected resume command");
};
// after
let Some(Commands::Resume { session_id, last }) = cli.command else {
    panic!("expected resume command, got {:?}", cli.command);
};

assert!(matches!(cli.command, Commands::Resume { .. }), "got {:?}", cli.command);

fn as_resume(command: &Commands) -> Option<(Option<String>, bool)> {
    match command {
        Commands::Resume { session_id, last } => Some((session_id.clone(), *last)),
        _ => None,
    }
}

let Some(Commands::Resume { session_id, last }) = cli.command else {
    panic!("expected resume command, got {:?}", cli.command);
};

When it happens

Trigger: parse_cli(&["codewhale","resume","abc123"]) returns a variant other than Commands::Resume { session_id, last }, so destructuring fails and the let-else panics.

Common situations: Resume subcommand renamed/removed; Resume variant fields changed shape so the pattern no longer matches; 'resume' absorbed into 'exec --continue'; stale test build.
